Well, we could start deciding on the panel now and collecting nominations. The Harrogate crime-writing festival starts on the 17th July, so that could be a good target date for deciding the shortlist.<br />
<br />
Pondering whether to split the shortlist up into the basic genres, as well as having an overall prize, but that's probably best left for a future contest.<br />
<br />
Edit: Splitting into genres might not be right this time, but what about a separate section for short stories?

I agree, that sounds a better idea. It might also be worth going back to having only authors with a novel (or a short story?) either published or due to be published that year being eligible.

I think the poll was too open last time, it skewed the results too much. Perhaps we could pick a panel of judges, get some nominations, then when the list is compiled run the poll with fixed choices.
